Kick-Butt Kahlùa Sundae

When I was a child, I don’t think I ever saw my mother drink unless we were on the occasional vacation and she ordered a piña colada. I do, however, distinctly remember her spooning a touch of Kahlùa over her vanilla ice cream a fair number of times—and every time, she had a big smile on her face as she ate it. I remember her looking so happy. So in honor of her, I created this scrumptious sundae.

    Spoon the ice cream into a wineglass (a small bowl is okay too). Drizzle the chocolate syrup and Kahlùa evenly over the top. Top with the whipped topping. Serve immediately.
